Whether you can inherit a private property without selling your HDB flat depends on **when the HDB flat was purchased** by you or your spouse:
* **HDB Purchased Before August 30th, 2010:** You can inherit a private property **and keep both** the HDB flat and the inherited property.
* **HDB Purchased On or After August 30th, 2010:** In this case, you can inherit a private property, **but you will need to sell one of the properties**. Here's a breakdown of the options:
* **Sell HDB Flat:** You can choose to sell your HDB flat and keep the inherited private property.
* **Sell Inherited Property:** You can also choose to sell the inherited private property and keep your HDB flat (assuming you meet eligibility requirements to own an HDB flat).

**Important Note:**
* These are general guidelines. It's always best to **check with HDB directly** for the latest eligibility requirements and regulations concerning inheritance and property ownership. They can be reached at [https://www.hdb.gov.sg/contact-us](https://www.hdb.gov.sg/contact-us)
**In summary:**
* The answer depends on when you purchased your HDB flat.
* If purchased before Aug 30th, 2010, you can keep both.
* If purchased on or after Aug 30th, 2010, you'll need to sell one.
